At AIR I have learned how to be more confident in myself and my creativity! I’ve also learned to see the beauty in everybody!

What do you wish fashion could be?

This is one of the many questions we asked the Phenomenal Woman Project teens while they prepared for their alternative fashion show. Throughout this program teens created fashion that made them feel confident, comfortable, powerful and more. Do any of the clothes in your closet or draws do that for you? What do you wish could change about the fashion world? Our teens has some amazing responses to what fashion could and should be…

“I wish that fashion could be less judgmental”

“I wish fashion could be more open to different people and different ideas”

“I think that fashion should be less about looking one certain way and more about being yourself and looking good in your own eyes.”

“I wish that fashion could be less expensive and accessible to more people. You shouldn’t have to spend lots of money just to have clothes.”

“I wish that fashion was less gendered and available to everyone of all sizes.”
